Solana is a high-performance blockchain built for speed. Transactions settle in under a second and cost a tiny fraction of a cent, which gives customers one of the smoothest crypto payment experiences available. Solana also carries USDT and USDC, so a single SOL wallet covers stablecoin payments too.

For a WooCommerce store, Solana is about checkout experience. A SOL payment confirms in under a second and costs a fraction of a cent, so the customer barely waits and the order is marked paid almost immediately. Solana also carries USDT and USDC, so a single Solana wallet covers both the native coin and stablecoins. VelozaPay forwards every payment straight to a wallet you own, with no account and no KYC.

Why Solana

Why accept Solana on your store

Near-instant settlement

Solana finalises transactions in well under a second, so customers are not left watching a pending screen.

Fees of a fraction of a cent

Solana network fees are negligible, which keeps every order — large or small — economical to pay in crypto.

A fast-growing ecosystem

Solana has one of the most active and rapidly growing user bases in crypto, and those users transact on-chain constantly.

Payment gateway

How the VelozaPay Solana payment gateway works

When a customer chooses Solana at checkout, VelozaPay opens a payment page that locks the SOL amount to your order total, shows a one-time Solana address with a QR code, and watches the Solana network for the transaction.

Solana finalises transactions in well under a second, so the payment is seen almost as soon as the customer sends it. The SOL is then forwarded to the wallet address you set in the plugin and a REST callback marks the WooCommerce order paid — one of the fastest end-to-end checkouts VelozaPay offers.

Sub-second finality

Solana confirms a transaction in well under a second, so the customer is not left watching a pending screen.

Fees of a fraction of a cent

Solana network fees are negligible, which keeps every order economical to pay in crypto, large or small.

SOL, USDT and USDC in one wallet

Your Solana address receives native SOL as well as USDT and USDC issued on Solana — three coins, one setup.

How it works

Solana payments in three steps

  1. 1

    Install the plugin

    Add VelozaPay to WooCommerce and paste your SOL payout wallet — no account, no KYC.

  2. 2

    Customer pays SOL

    At checkout the customer picks Solana, scans the QR and sends the payment.

  3. 3

    Order completes

    The SOL settles on-chain to your wallet and the WooCommerce order is marked paid automatically.

Payments are made and settled on the Solana network — the same wallet also receives USDT and USDC on Solana.

Pricing

What it costs to accept Solana

The VelozaPay plugin is free, with no monthly or setup fee — you pay only a small flat percentage on a transaction when a customer pays. There are no chargeback fees, because Solana payments settle on-chain and cannot be reversed.

The Solana network fee is paid by the customer and is tiny — typically a fraction of a US cent, even at busy times. That low, predictable cost is one of Solana's biggest advantages for checkout. The SOL settles directly to your wallet, so there is no payout fee and no withdrawal delay.

Use cases

Stores that benefit most from Solana checkout

Solana's speed and near-zero fees make it a fit wherever a fast, frictionless checkout matters.

High-volume stores

When you process many orders, Solana's fraction-of-a-cent fee and instant confirmation keep checkout fast and cheap at scale.

Low-priced and micro-purchases

Negligible fees make Solana practical for small orders that a higher-fee chain would make uneconomical.

Solana-native and web3 audiences

Stores selling into the fast-growing Solana ecosystem meet customers on the chain they already use daily.

Stores that also want stablecoins

A Solana wallet accepts USDT and USDC on Solana too, so one setup covers native and dollar-pegged payments.
